I've wanted a Chenille bedspread forever. I thought this one was pretty, so decided to try it. The first time I washed it (on delicate) it shed all over the place. Pieces of the the tufts were in the washer. When I dried it, the lint trap was packed full of fuzz. When I pulled it out and put it on my bed, lint went everwhere. It's still shedding and I'm afraid to wash it again.
